    I expect Roofe to start

    Think he’s our best option away from home, less sure at home. Good game to test this

    Agree with LL (had to happen one day) that we need Sais and Hernandez if both fit

    Cibicki v Alioski I’m less sure, can imagine Alioski getting rested at some point

    Hadn’t looked at the line up, I assumed he was proposing a 12 man starting line up

    Have to have 2 proper DM’s

    Should be an interesting line-up today. Lot of things for TC to take into consideration.

    First one is injuries. TC has a notable track record for telling bare-faced lies. And good on him for it - why give anything away to the opposition? I think there's the chance that he might be stringing us along re. Saiz. I hope I'm wrong, but I won't be surprised if he doesn't play. I also wonder if Vieira is fit enough to play. Perhaps he'll be the DM that gets rested for this match, whether he's fit or not, just to be on the safe side.

    Next up is that we have a match 2 days later. And not the biggest squad in the world. I suspect the subbings will be planned around keeping legs fresh, and that makes me think front 4 only subbings. Makes me also wonder if we'll see Dallas +/or Sacko coming on.

    The other consideration might be whether we try to salvage something out of both games, or go for it in the first with our strongest team, & patch a team together for the Monday game.

    A lot to consider, and even if I was ITK, I'd struggle to come up with a team. All I can hope to predict is the back 5 staying the same, with possibly Anita turning out in the second game if required, or indeed Nessi. I'm also going to guess that Soggy will be on the bench for both matches.

    Good Morning from a damp Bardsey where the snow as almost disappeared
    I think that Hernadez will be rested for Saiz in an otherwise unchanged team Birmingham will have Sam Gallagher back from suspension
    They spent a lot of money last window at the behest of Rednapp who was then sacked I wonder why?
    They have a very good keeper in Stockdale a leeds lad who desperately wanted to play for us again I think he got a big signing on fee.Harry loves to splash out with someone elses money
    So it will be a tight game Leeds 1-0

    Now looking like O"Kane is out too. Phillips & Klich at DM?

    Edit: Klich on the bench, Nessi starts.

    Has Klich lost a leg or something?

    Hopefully wins for Leeds, Wolves and Ipswich today to keep our momentum going and be only 2 points from that second spot. A nice touch making Berardi Captain and I hope he breaks his duck. MOT.

    Never confident, but could be a case of having another game in 48 hours. Hope it's not a case of underestimating Birmingham

    Me, if saiz is fit enough for the bench he is fit enough to start, getting a bit frustrated with tc tinkering play your strongest team always

    I wonder how much Rad is going to pocket for Saiz next week?
